[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are you flying to/from? That info should guide the responses/guidance.

Practically speaking, there is no magic 8 ball. You either wait patiently (if you run into issues) or you take control of your destiny and plan to drive.

I’m flying later this week because my destination is too far to drive. Hopefully my flights will be fine. [/quote]

10h drive to Michigan. I’ve done it for years but this supposed to be a quick back and forth trip. Not keen on driving that long and driving back two days later on my own. [/quote]

If flying say Delta to Detroit, I'd feel good about that, they have a ton of flights every day between DC and Detroit.  If going to a smaller airport with fewer options, or flying Southwest with only 2 flights a day out BWI, I'd be a bit more worried.

But yeah most flights have been fine, for now.[/quote]

I’m going IAD-DTW on delta. I’m really debating whether to get an underseat carryon. I think that’s a good idea. I’m cleaning out some house stuff so I need extra clothes to change into. I’m a good packer so I’m not concerned that. The thought of my bag beinf checked at the gate then airport limbo for days (I mean who knows) is annoying. Especially if limbo is DTW. I need to get back here for my immediate family (issues here which is why my stay in Detroit is short). [/quote]
